Abas Abdikarim Bakar, better known as 1.Cuz (born September 23, 1997), is a Swedish rapper of Somali heritage from Hässelby, Stockholm.[2] He is known for performing with a white balaclava covering his head.
1.Cuz spent two years in prison, an experience that he later said influenced his musical career.[3] In November 2018, he released his debut single "Akta mannen", and in December 2019, his studio album 1 År reached the top of the Swedish Albums Chart.[4] In 2022, 1.Cuz was featured on a remix of Ed Sheeran's song "2step", and the two later performed together at the Ullevi stadium.[5]. In August 2025, Ed Sheeran was the secret guest when 1.Cuz played at Gröna Lund performing "2step" with him. [6]
Community engagement and business activities
[edit | edit source]Among other things, Bakar has collaborated with Greta Thunberg, for example to call for vaccination against covid. Bakar has also become involved in the climate issue by performing at Fridays for Future's events in 2020 and 2022.[7] Bakar runs the company Pro Mr Investment AB for his activities as an artist.[8]
